I put rubber edging all round mine but may consider cutting the top off after seeing that :think:

I would like. It fits spot on if I'm honest

But, the bolt that secures it to the engine keeps coming a bit loose :confused:

Do I need to put some locktite on it or something??

Mines fine, don't overtighten it but it shouldn't come loose with a pinch up.

Wouldn't use glue though dude, it gets very hot in there for one thing, remember what used to happen to Ferrari 458's when they first came out ;)

Took a few pics of the engine bay after I'd cleaned it up a bit and removed the saggy bonnet lining

Will seal the scuttle at some point this week.

Haven't drove it since I removed the bonnet lining, hope it is a bit louder.

Will be stripping the interior out at some point next week too, should be fun.....lol

Tbf the engine cover is clean, it just looks sh1t when its been modified to fit. Should have got the TTS cover like I was going to lol :(. But you live and learn. Just going to run it without engine cover for the moment

honestly mate, even if you do a few mods like intake and remap you will start to unleash the potential of the car and it'll give u a massive boner every time you drive it lol. I love the sound of the intake, constantly dropping a gear just so I can hear it again!!!

I'll take you out for a spin in it and sort out some magical VCDS stuff for you soon if u want?

Could kill 2 birds with 1 stone and VCDS mine too? pretty please ;). We can have ourselves a mini north east meet? lol
